14. Frank L. Wood. Son of Alexander H. Wood Sr. & Frances J. Sealy. Born May 1870 in Boston, MA.
Frank L. was 10 years old in the 1880 United States Federal Census, living with his father widowed Alexander H. Wood in Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts. Sisters Ada, and Jessie, and grandmother Jessie Wood (75 years old) are also in the household.

(In the 1910 Census it would appear that his first wife, Julia was no longer with them, and present wife Chenos W. had the same maiden surname as Julia--which was Wiksell. Perhaps they were related.)

In the 1920 United States Federal Census, there is a "Frank L. Wood" living at Chicago Ward 23, Cook (Chicago), Illinois; age 49, born about 1871 in Massachusetts, Father's birth place, Scotland; Mother's birth place, England; Married, white, male. Living in same household is: Frank L. Wood, 49 and Therese Wood, 49.

(This would appear to be the same Frank L. Wood, in a different State and with a different wife. More research needs to be done to confirm identity.)

He first married Julia T. Wiksell, About 1893. Born May 1870 in Massachusetts.
In the 1900 United States Federal Census, Julia was 30 years old, born May 1870 in Massachusetts, living in Portland, Cumberland, Maine; with her husband Frank L. Wood, their two children, Hamilton L. Wood, 6, and Phillip E. Wood, 4; her mother Julia E. Wiksell, 66, and Mary Flagherity, age 29.

(From the Census information, Julia's father was born in West Indies and her mother Julia was born in New York.)
